Those types of emails are usually a reminder to me to cancel whatever it is they're bitching about.

I used to order monthly coffee nespresso pods from a small-time online store. One time I put the items in the cart and then stepped away from the computer for a short bit only to return to an email with the subject line "Looks like you’ve forgotten something!" displaying the items in my shopping cart. I haven't ordered another thing since.
I can see how those ones may be effective, but they need to give me a coupon at the same time ...
If I were the only person using it, yeah probably. As it is, with a household of other users, it’s staying for now but I still really enjoy thoroughly mocking HBO for it whenever the chance allows.

At least the emails are no more.
